These long elegant earrings feature deep blue lapis lazuli 6mm, sunny peach aventurine 8mm, and tranquil aqua quartz 10mm beads. The last-named are dyed; however, they've been through some rigorous testing, and come through with flying colours, so they will NOT fade. All the gemstone beads are framed in a circle of frosty silver glass seed beads, and suspended from largest to smallest from sterling silver ball post findings. From the post to the bottom of the dangle measures approximately 2-1/4". Colourful and lightweight, these are great to wear with summer fashions. If they're pretty enough to wear in cooler seasons, would you REALLY complain? They're another stunning concoction from SPARKLE PLENTY.All of our one of a kind and limited edition artisan beaded jewelry is individually handcrafted in our studio in Los Angeles, California.
